GM fanatic ◊ 2010-04-18 04:35	the one thing that hooked me to this movie was the car, really sad that they had to crash it into the tree
oherna5349 ◊ 2011-04-17 21:01	Buc84 you are correct ..they were about 5 cars used to film the scenes of the 442. but only two real. One of them belongs to the guy who lives in Austin. The other one belongs to me , I bought it from the transportation crew helper in San Antonio Texas. For several months I thought that it was a Cutlass "S" but after running the numbers trhough http://v8cars.hu/oldsvin/decode.php we find out that it was an original 442. The one that I have is the one that has the windshield broken (after the hitcher gets his head slammed on it). -- Last edit: 2012-04-24 20:59:15

Richweiler ◊ 2022-04-26 00:24	Based on the Cutlass platform, i believe it was named the 442 because it had four up front (A four barrel carb), four on the floor (A four speed transmission) and two out back (Twin exhausts)
